A friend of mine is pregnant (12 weeks).
The last two times she went to the Dr. To
do her urine samples they came back
contaminated. The nurse called her with
the news but wasn't able to tell her over
the phone what it could be. She just
told her to take another sample. Both
these samples have been taken at a medical
center. Once at at the dr office and
once at the lab. She isnt sure what it
could be. And i've never heard of this
happening before. Does anybody have any
clues on what could be up?

My guess is that she's not clean (no
offense meant). But usually when the doc
has u do a urine sample they give u an
alcohol cloth to wipe off with before u
pee.... Maybe she is wiping from the
back forward first..... (sorry to be
graphic) that is all I know....

Hey
thanks for the quick response. She does
use the wipes and she doesnt wipe back to
front so that couldn't be it. Thanks
again.
Does anybody else have any ideas?

The only other things I can think of is
the cup is dirty inside (u wouldn't think
that would happen twice though)... Or she
is taking some kind of drugs, herbal
drugs, or meds that r potent enuf to
effect it...... Good luck

Thanks again,
she said the only tea she drinks is earl
grey tea. She's going to call her Dr.
Office. Hopfully they can set up an
appointment or she can talk straight to
the Dr.
